Atletico Madrid emerged victorious with a 2-1 win against Man City in a pre-season friendly held in Korea.

The goals were scored by Memphis Depay and Yannick Carrasco, securing a well-deserved victory for Atletico. The match experienced a 40-minute delay due to heavy rain in Seoul.

In the first half, City displayed dominant play, but Atletico’s Alvaro Morata and Thomas Lemar created two excellent chances for their team.

Pep Guardiola’s treble-winning team couldn’t find an equalizer despite Ruben Dias heading home a late Sergio Gomez corner.

Next weekend, Man City will face Arsenal in the Community Shield match.
